Hackathons & Challenges

Working together in a team on a data science task, tackling real research problems and achieving relevant results - at a hackathon or datathon, young data science talents can demonstrate their know-how and at the same time establish important networks. HIDA organizes numerous hackathons and challenges (live, hybrid and online) and supports hackathons as a cooperation partner. We can help you with our expertise in planning, implementing and promoting your event. 

Find out how we can support you with your Data Science Challenge here.

Learn more about our Lecture Series

Our Lecture Series

Stay on top of current data science research and learn about interesting approaches and issues in data science related to all research fields of the Helmholtz Association. Learn more about our lecture series here!

 

HIDA Lecture Series: Lectures in cooperation with the six Helmholtz Information & Data Science Schools and experts from the field of data science with reference to the respective research focus of the schools.

 

HMC Fair Friday: A cooperation with the Helmholtz Metadata Collaboration and high-ranking national and international speakers on issues of FAIR handling of data. The series aims at experienced actors in research data management as well as scientists from all research fields of the Helmholtz Association and beyond.

 

DKFZ Data Science Seminar: This series is a DKFZ-wide project that brings together leading scientists in the field of data science to discuss both methodological advances and medical applications.

Data Science Lectures

Together with the six Helmholtz Data Science Research Schools, HIDA has launched the HIDA Lecture Series, where renowned, international data scientists from the different research fields talk about their research. HIDA is also a partner in other data science lecture series: the HMC Fair Friday and the DKFZ Data Science Seminar.

The lectures are open to all interested parties within and outside the Helmholtz Association.

The five Helmholtz Incubator Platforms Helmholtz AIHelmholtz ImagingHIFIS, HIDA and HMC have teamed up to create a second edition of the Helmholtz Incubator Summer Academy!

They have designed a joint program with a variety course packages covering state of the art Data Science methods and skills, as well as networking opportunities in our Summer Academy Gathertown space!

Learn more about TEACH

TEACH - Talk about Education Across Communities in Helmholtz

The promotion of young scientists is a central component of the Helmholtz mission. Therefore, the development and management of training programmes and courses for PhD researchers, postdocs or research groups is particularly important. TEACH is an annual networking event for employees at Helmholtz Centres working in this context. It allows them to meet and network across centres and topics to share best practices and experiences, develop new ideas together, and share teaching and learning materials.

Learn more about Helmholtz Entrepeneurs

Helmholtz Entrepeneurs

The Helmholtz Entrepreneurs talks is a cooperation between Helmholtz, Helmholtz AI and HIDA. At these events, scientists working at Helmholtz can learn/refresh the basics of entrepreneurship and then network with the invited founders.
